Personally I am quite fine with requiring pkg-config as a build requirement for automtic detection of libcap, openssl, openldap and a a couple more. My only requirement is that a minimal build should be possible even without pkg-config. pkg-config is often available even on those old OS versions even if not normally installed. Regards Henrik
